ECG Targets Supreme Court And Jubilee House Over Unpaid Electricity Bills
According to Dr. Kwabena Donkor, a portion of the debt owed by institutions can be attributed to the ECG itself.

It has been suggested that the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) target the Supreme Court building and Jubilee House as part of its effort to collect debts from state-owned institutions in an effort to raise money.
Dr. Kwabena Donkor, the member of parliament for Pru East, stated that the ECG should ensure that all institutions that are due money, including the Supreme Court and Jubilee House, make payments.
According to Dr. Kwabena Donkor, a portion of the debt owed by institutions can be attributed to the ECG itself.
Additionally, he charged that the power distribution firm had previously bowed to pressure from governmental agencies to take action in order to pay back its debt.
Dr. Donkor said regarding the causes of the debt of the ECG that “It is an attitudinal problem. A lot of government institutions think there is one central government and that there can be debt settlement… there used to be an agency settlement arrangement but that is no more.
“ECG is partly to blame, previously it has succumbed to all sorts of pressures from government institutions. When I was the Minister of Power we put the Ministry of Energy and the Ministry of Finance on prepaid, once you put them on prepaid they can’t accumulate debt unless there is a fault, that is the challenge.”
The ECG has also been disconnecting homes and industries over debts.
